basics of Audio in Synthizer
This section explains how to get audio into and out of Synthizer. The following objects must be used by every application:
- Generators produce audio, for example by reading a buffer of audio data.
- Sources play audio from one or more generators.
- Contexts represent audio devices and group objects for the same device together.
The most basic flow of Synthizer is to create a context, source, and generator,
then connect the generator to the source. For example, you might combine
BufferGenerator and
DirectSource to play a stereo audio file
to the speakers, or swap DirectSource for
Source3D to place the sound in the 3D
environment.
